Make chicken glaze
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425˚F.

Cook chicken
2
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.)
  • Cook 1-2 min per side, until golden.
  • Remove from heat.
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, transfer chicken, then spread mustard glaze (from step 1) evenly on top.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-15 min, until cooked through.**
Prep

  • Meanwhile, core, then cut apple into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Using a rolling pin or a heavy-bottomed pan, gently crush crispy shallots in their package until broken into fine crumbs.
Make dressing
4
  • To a large bowl, add vinegar, remaining mustard, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 1/2 tbsp (3 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
Finish and serve

  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • To the bowl with dressing (from step 4), add apples and spring mix, then toss to coat.
  • Divide salad and chicken between plates.
  • Sprinkle feta and crispy shallot crumbs over salad, then sprinkle salad topping mix over everything.
